Yes - that was my point (I think)

. . . the point being that the Biddulph recording is probably the best of any of Menuhin's recordings of the Kreutzer (recorded before he started deteriorating), and yet even this one is inferior (IMHO) to the Repin recording (and probably to a few others from the violinists of today). And to take the point a bit further, suppose I grant that violinists of today lack the easily identified individuality of sound characteristic of yesteryears' violinists, that's still only one aspect of a total performance (as the superiority of the Repin/Argerich or Repin/Lugansky performances of the Kreutzer Sonata make clear).
